A West Wing Drabble for tww100

[quaggy]

Another dabble inspired by tww100

Title: Needed Rules
Author: Quaggy 
Challenge # 162:  Rules
Word Count: 100
Notes:  I don't write for this pair very often, so I don't think I got their voices right.  But I just couldn't help myself.

“I have rules.”

“Of course, you do.”

“First, you have to tell Andy.”

“About?”

"Me coming to work for Bartlet.”

"Must I?”

"Yes, and trust me when I say that I am doing you a favor by insisting on that one.”

"Forgive me if I don’t believe you.”

"Second, you shall never, ever, ever refer to Alex Thompson’s congressional campaign or anything that might have occurred during that period of time.”

"CJ, Andy knows…”

"Yes, Toby, I’m well aware of that.”

"Ok.  So… Never?”

"Well… Until I think it’s ok.”

"How will I know when it’s ok again?”

"You’ll know.”

Not bad. I think CJ's voice might be a bit of an amalgamation of CJ and Donna, but otherwise not terrible.

I really like the premise. :)

I don't get it. What's wrong with me?

Could I be any further behind? I'm sorry, I've been so bad with feedback Quaggy.

I got CJ straight off with the "I have rules line". Ok, I kind of cheated, I knew from the notes it wasn't Josh and Donna and CJ seemed the next most likely! Shame we never got more of CJ and Toby's background, this was an interesting tidbit. Me likey Quaggy.

It took me a while to place it (it's late!) but when I did I wondered why it wasn't in an episode. :-)
